Bucephalandra 'Needle Leaf' is a rare and beautiful aquarium plant that has small, elongated leaves about 0.5–0.75 inch (1–2 cm) long. The deep green leaves are speckled with small, white dots and have slightly wavy edges, whereas the new rhizome growth has a lovely red hue. Expect this slow-growing bucephalandra to reach about 1–2 inches (3–5 cm) in height.

100% Free of Pests

Tissue culture plants are "lab-grown" at the farms by taking a tissue sample from an existing plant and growing it in a sterile nutrient medium. While tissue culture plants tend to be smaller and more expensive than potted plants, they are 100% free of snails, algae, and duckweed.

We Include Heat Packs and Liners Free of Charge

We have a custom-developed algorithm to include heat packs and insulating plant liners as needed, based on the weather forecast from our warehouse to your shipping address. This helps keep plants at stable temperatures, both in hot and cold weather. Other vendors typically charge you at checkout for a heat pack. We include them when needed free of charge because it's our job to deliver our plants to your door healthy.

Cups Protect Plants in Shipping

Tissue culture plants have been optimized for long term storage. From the day that they are cultured, these plants  are designed to stay in cups for months. This makes them especially forgiving during transit when they are in a box on their way to your home.

You get many plants per portion. They’re happy and healthy! Super easy to plant and grow, and look stunning among more common-looking plants.

Tough little plants

13 day shipping trip due to bad weather nobody had any control over. Cracked cup, lid off, 5 tiny buce plants everywhere...they are still green, alive and beautiful!

A Healthy Specimen

This is a great purchase. The culture was large enough for me to split up into several pieces to scatter around by blackwater tank. This has already grown substantially since adding and it shows no signs of stopping. CO2 and ACO fertilizer in use.

Awesome little plant!

It came in a very tight clump that I was able to separate into 4 or 5 smaller clumps! I love these micro plants!

Nice plant

My order was delayed several days and arrived about a week after shipping. The tissue culture was still in great shape and seems to be doing well in my aquarium. Good portion.

Great looking plants

I found 5 different plants in one little container, and they are amazing. Beautiful leaf structure, bright green coloration. This is the biggest one in the picture, two weeks in and they shooting new leaves.

First time with tissue culture. Like all Bucephelandra they are ,I find, slow growers, but they appear to be very healthy

Roni (Auburn, IL, US)

Very nice portions arrived in good shape, despite arriving locally and then being shipped to the next state again, a delay of about a week in summer heat. Needle leaf is also a good-looking buce, with lovely thin leaves in abundance. Glad to have it in my collection.

Beautiful plant

I have not tried growing this plant before, and it's doing well so far! The packaging is really nice, the plant arrived quickly, and I'm really enjoying it.

Beautiful!

Purchased this to split with another person, it came in looking fabulous. I've never grown buce before so I'm excited to see how it goes. The only downside is that my snails absolutely demolished the leaves, but that's not the plant's fault lol

Bucephalandra Needle Leaf Tissue Culture

As with any Buce I've ever Received from Aquarium Coop, lightly attach to driftwood and it's off to the races, zero melt, and it has maintained its bright lime color.

Good first experience with tissue culture plant

This was my first tissue culture plant from any store. It arrived as a compact, densely grown ball of buce in a liquid medium that probably started as a gel before the warm weather and UPS got to it. Plant was bright green and appeared healthy. I carefully broke the plant ball apart into 3 smaller clumps and found that many inner leaves were melting from growing in such tight quarters--I rinsed the plants and tucked the clumps into rock/wood crevices with plenty of light, and so far they appear to be adjusting well. Much more melt than I normally experience with potted plants, but also much healthier tissue culture plants than I usually see in stores. Great way to obtain different varieties of buce from a sustainable source!

Beautiful healthy plant!

I attached it to dragon stone and driftwood. It never melted; or, if it did, it was minimal and I hardly noticed. New leaves were sprouting within 2-3 weeks! I’m very satisfied, as always, with Aquarium Co-Op products!

Buce Tissue Culture

I am really loving the Tropica 1-2-Grow line and the Buce that came in this culture was amazing.
